RE: Sporting Bets You Wished You Were Part Of
You are viewing a single comment's thread:
A colleague of mine's girlfriend backed Leicester to win the Premier League in 2016, £10 at odds of 2500/1. She was a life-long Foxes fan and would put a £10 bet on them to win the league every year regardless of which division they were in.
Ultimately she choked and cashed out the bet before they won the league as she expected that a bigger club would go past them. It was still worth several thousand pounds but just imagine if she'd held her nerve....

That was one of the things that made the Leicester premiership win so special. Punters who put a bet on their own team to win regardless of their chances every year won a fortune just to cap the sheet joy of finally winning the league.
Really nice to get a financial return as well and it's always a wise person who cashes out in front rather than risk it all. Good for her, hope she enjoyed the windfall!

As a Spurs supporter, I can say with some confidence that you should always assume we'll mess it up, just as we did in our pursuit of Leicester that year. Always bet on Spurs to be Spursy ;-)
